I tried this on Linux, silmply gunzip and it works.
I also tried it with 7zip on Windows, and it seems it
does not unzip, an the file size stays the same.
Same with the gzip Windows binary from
http://gnuwin32.sourceforge.net/packages/gzip.htm
Seems like a bug in the gzip library on Windows.
I have sent a bug-report to support@gzip.org
